Wheathauler we're sposed to get it. Bad part is spose to start as rain. Snow's OK but I hate that ice. Specially after last year. Our power was off 9 days.

,but i am going to have to agree with Cowdoc,i'll take the white stuff over the dad-burn ice any day
,we ran $1500 of diesle through the generator at the dairy during that ice storm last year,electric was off for 21 milkings,man what a mess. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy

on a positive note,i talked to the owner of the plant that is going to make the hay pellets to burn for the local powerplant today and he told me they were going to need 5 or 6 loads/day 5 days/week moved
,powerplant is putting in pit thats suppose to unload 25ton in 7 minutes but well see,looks like they going to have a pull through pit and load with front-end loader,so may be a pretty fair turn around time. its a 42 mile round-trip and the best thing is pellet plant is 12 miles from home. They are going to be up and running by the end of May,but well see,i sure hope so

the weather guru's are callimg for as much as 4'' of the white stuff here on friday. not looking forward to it.
dairyman Thanks this. -
I was thinking about taking load to OK but after seeing weather reports forget it... it wasn't paying that much anyway. They don't know how to drive in snow and ice. I went through Oklahoma City during a ice storm. They were sliding down hills, into ditches, everywhere but staying on road.
dairyman and slabrunner Thank this. -

wheathauler Thanks this. -
howdy yall, how is life treating you guys this week? talked to a guy yesterday, he may have a spot open for me running local/regional end dump here in a few weeks. We got an inch of snow or so here in western PA last night, if you guys happen to pass through.
wheathauler Thanks this. -
cowdoc, dairyman. OKC, tulsa supposed to get ice storm tomorrow. Don't know whether that means you will but watch out. If we get anything should be just snow. Still hoping it goes to south of us.

dairyman Thanks this.

That SC team looked pretty good last night. Especially the point guard. KY's bigs looked good though. KS and KY would be a good game.
I've been looking online for a gig driving hopper in harvest this year. Got on US Custom Harvesters site and found quite a few operations to contact.
